Producer notes: "From one of Sonoma Valley's oldest and most prestigious Zinfandel vineyards, Old Hill Ranch, established in 1885. The grapes for 'Bambino' are from a 10-acre block we planted on Old Hill in 1998. This young vine field-blend is patterned after the ancient vine field-blend for which Old Hill is known. The wine is a blend of at least a dozen grape varieties -- principally Zinfandel, but also Petite Sirah, Alicante Bouchet and Grenache to name a few -- all fermented together to create this Zinfandel blend. Our Bambino is deep purple in color with intense blackberry aromas and lots of 'Old Hill' spice, including nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla. The flavors are intense too, with blackberries, cherries, and vanilla spice. The tannins are big but ripe and mouth watering on the finish."

Producer notes: "We’ve been producing a White Zinfandel at Buehler since 1983. Our means of bringing you consistently delicious wines remains unchanged since 1983: we hand-pick our 100% zinfandel fruit riper than most producers and leave less residual sugar. Riper fruit translates to flavors like wild berries and strawberries; yes, real red zinfandel fruit flavors! The end result is a wine with more red zinfandel berry character and a less sweet, more refreshing taste. Alcohol 12.5%. Residual sugar 1.5%."

87 points Wine Spectator: "Soft but still zesty, with appealing notes of ripe black cherry, caramel and spice. Drink now through 2017. (6/30/12)"
Producer notes: "Cline Ancient Vines Zinfandel shows wonderful, fat strawberry, with coffee and chocolate characters. Aging in new and used wood has lent this wine a subtle vanilla quality that nicely complements the explosive fruit notes. Food Pairing: Ripe fruit and soft tannins make this mouth coating rich vintage a nice complement to pasta dishes with a light tomato sauce or grilled meats. Alcohol 15.0%."

Producer notes: "The 2009 Diener Ranch Zinfandel exhibits loads of blackberry, plum, chocolate and a hint of dried herbs on the nose. In the mouth you will find the same characteristic dustiness from the red volcanic soils as in previous vintages, and the body is rounder with subtle mouth coating tannins. As such, the DR Zin pairs great with spicy foods like Kansas City barbeque or pasta with arrabbiata sauce. Alcohol 14.1%."

Producer notes: "This is our third vintage of Cinema, and probably the most intensely concentrated of the vintages. The 2008 Cinema has tremendous richness as a result of the fruit’s ripeness, and a solid tannin structure that will allow it to mature nicely over time. Those who are fans of Super Tuscans will enjoy the spicy, full-bodied nature of this wine as well as the juicy fruit impressions of blackberries, cherries, currants, anise and cigar box. Dark and decadent, but with a good showing of balance and complexity. Barrel aged 18 months in 50% new French oak and 50% 1-2 year old French oak. 47% Zinfandel, 46% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petite Sirah. Alcohol 14.5%.

Producer notes: "82% Zinfandel, 14% Petite Sirah, 4% Syrah. Barrel fermented 13 months in French oak (25% new and 75% 1-2 year old). A Zinfandel that pushes the envelope of decadence with voluptuous, concentrated flavors of fruit jam, chocolate and vanilla."
Not yet reviewed; 2009 vintage rated 92 points and 'Editors' Choice' by Wine Enthusiast: "Just one word for this Zin: delicious. It’s really classic Dry Creek, maybe a little softer than many, but profoundly ripe in wild berry, cherry, cola, licorice, black pepper and sandalwood flavors that finish long and deep. Great price for a Zinfandel this good."

Producer notes: "77% Zinfandel, 22% Petite Sirah, 1% Carignan. A second straight year of lower than average yields has provided for a wonderfully nuanced, deeply fragrant Zinfandel. A wine that expresses its intensity through complex layers instead of simple, brute power. It is almost impossible to describe the zesty 'fruit bowl' of aromatics: Raspberry? Blackberry? Mulberry? Perhaps razzmatazz berry describes it best. The addition of Petite sirah underscores the ripe fruit flavors and adds a spicy touch of cardamom and cinnamon. Plush without ever being heavy or harsh, the 2009 Zinfandel is a delicious wine that sets the mind thinking of a myriad of potential food pairings."

Josh Raynolds (International Wine Cellar): "Deep ruby. Very smoky aromas of cherry, blueberry and grilled meat; smells like syrah. Pliant dark fruit flavors are supported by juicy acidity and framed by supple tannins. Picks up a spicy quality on the long, zesty finish. Very fresh and easy to drink now. (May/Jun 2008)"
Producer notes: "This old-vine Zinfandel provides captivating aromas of raspberry, boysenberry, blackberry and white pepper and anise, complemented by flavors reminiscent of black raspberries, bittersweet chocolate and cinnamon. Stunningly rich and concentrated, our 2006 Russian River Valley Zinfandel has incredible definition of fruit and sweet luscious tannins."

Producer notes: "Our Ink Grade Vineyard is perfectly suited to growing Zinfandel. On a rocky shale ridge, we designed terraced blocks which provide maximum sun exposure to nurture the fruit to full maturity. Flavors of strawberry and raspberry jam are spiced up by hints of black pepper and anise -- classic characteristics of the varietal. Medium in body, this is a balanced wine that finishes with well-integrated oak -- adding just a dash of vanilla flavor."

Producer notes: "The 2011 Joel Gott Zinfandel has aromas of raspberries, blackberries and blueberry jam. Dense and rich on the front of the palate with bright acidity on the mid-palate, and a long finish. The largest component of our blend for this vintage is old vine Zinfandel from Lodi. Fruit there was picked before the rains hit California well into harvest, and the longer than average hangtime in Lodi made for wines with better concentration than those from other appellations. Fruit from Sonoma, Mendocino and the Shenandoah Valley in Amador maintained the spice and red fruit characteristics that they’re known for. Blended, the various appellations produce a balanced, yet jammy and rich, Zinfandel. Barrel aged in 25% new American oak. Alcohol 14.3%."

Producer notes: "93% Zinfandel, 7% Petite Sirah. On the nose red fruit is complemented by earthen spices and nuances of sweet oak. Fresh raspberry and baked fruit dominate the front palate giving way to a balanced mouth feel. The tannins are silky and focused, exposing the more elegant characteristics of the cooler growing season. The finish is prototypical of Rockpile: long and vibrant. Full bodied with balanced acidity, this wine will age gracefully for the next 5-7 years. Barrel aged 15 months in 65% French and 35% American oak. Alcohol 14.15%."
Not yet reviewed; 2010 vintage rated 91 points by Wine Spectator: "Intense and still a bit awkward in its youth, but appealing for its spicy raspberry aromas and structured flavors of baked cherry, toasty anise and cinnamon. Needs time. Best from 2013 through 2018. 657 cases made."

Producer notes: "The grape yields in the 2010 vintage were lower than normal, producing wines with more depth, extraction and flavors. The grapes are grown on a steep hillside above the Dry Creek Valley. This Zin is a classic Dry Creek style: abundant jammy strawberry, blackberry and sweet dark cherry aromas surround a full-bodied red wine with fine tannins and a long, crisp and juicy finish. 220 cases made."

Producer notes: "[$39 list] This Zinfandel shows a bright, garnet red color with medium density. The nose is loaded with rich layers of spice, coconut, and brown sugar along with big fruit notes of plum, boysenberry, and hints of dried fruit as well. Beneath all that there is a rich but subtle earthliness reminiscent of hoisin. The palate opens smoothly with soft round tannins rolling across the tongue and a firm acid core, both working in harmony to establish the balance and structure of this wine. Ripe blackberry and bright strawberry flavors fill the mid-palate, all beautifully complemented by the nutty underlayer, and rounded out by the smoked meat notes on the finish. Alcohol 14.2%."

Producer notes: "The brambly fruit -- raspberry and cherry -- along with the dusty texture are apparent from the first aromas. Our 2010 vintage shows that classic Rutherford Dust character: tannins and a mouthfeel suggesting cocoa powder. The flavors echo the fruit and this texture with slightly spicy and tea like nuances. Thanks to the tannins, it is a bit drier this vintage, giving a texture that is rich and structured in the mouth. On the finish the fruit has the pepper and jam flavor that is unmistakably our Rutherford Zinfandel. CCOF Certified Organically Grown. Barrel aged 13 months in 40% new oak (Hungarian, 500L puncheons). 95% Zinfandel, 5% Petite Syrah. 1,400 cases produced. Alcohol 14.7%."

Producer notes: "Opolo's Summit Creek Zinfandel is a full-bodied red wine showcasing vibrant raspberry and black cherry fruit aromatics framed by soft tannins and balanced acidity. Subtle pepper and spice nuances further complement this hand-crafted wine. Our Summit Creek Zinfandel is an approachable wine that is ready to drink today, although the dark color and youthful fruitiness indicates that it will likely cellar well for a few years."

'Highly Recommended,' California Grapevine: "Medium-dark purplish ruby; forward, intense, jammy, peppery, blackberry fruit aroma with herbal notes and an early hint of sulfur that swirled off; full body; big, rich, extracted, jammy, dark berry fruit flavors; full tannin; some heat and harshness on the finish; lingering aftertaste. 15.9% alcohol; blended with 10% Petite Sirah, 6% Mourvèdre, and 2% Grenache; released August 2012. (Dec 2012)"
Producer notes: "82% Zinfandel, 10% Petite Sirah, 6% Syrah, 2% Grenache. The 2010 Saldo has a dark ruby color and intense aromas of dark cherry, cocoa powder and baking spice. The entry is rich and full, and leads into a broad mid palate with concentration and density, backed by lively acidity. The texture is soft and the tannins are polished. The finish is long with persistent notes of chocolate, berry and vanilla bean. Alcohol 15.9%."

Producer notes: "72% Zinfandel, 12% Carignane, 12% Petite Sirah, 2% Syrah, 1% Grenache, 1% Alicante Bouchet. Nose of briary blackberry fruit, licorice and a touch of vanilla. Medium to full-bodied palate with plum and black cherry fruit, well rounded tannins and balanced acidity on the finish. Unlike our single-vineyard wines, which reflect the distinctive character of each site, Three Valleys represents the blending of vineyards - winemaking - at it's finest. Zinfandel determines the wine's varietal character; old-vine carignane contributes bright fruit and acidity; petite sirah spice, depth of color, and firm tannins; grenache brings briary fruit and lively tannins. 14.4% alcohol."

'Highly Recommended,' California Grapevine: "Dark purplish ruby; attractive, briary, peppery, blackberry fruit aroma with a hint of clove and oaky overtones; full body; big, rich, jammy, dark berry fruit flavors with a trace of residual sugar and a layer of sweet oak that provides a full, rich, creamy mouthfeel; medium-full tannin; lingering aftertaste. Stylistic. Highly recommended. 15.9% alcohol; blended with 6% Petite Sirah; released April 2012. (Aug 2012)"
Producer notes: "Deep purple in color; powerful aromas of wild berries, clove and plum emerge from the glass. Luscious, juicy layers of black cherry, blackberry and boysenberry integrate with nuances of allspice and burst on the palate. Berry flavors linger for an extended finish. Our favorite pairings for this wine include pasta bolognese, curry chicken, and lamb kabobs. 94% Zinfandel, 6% Petite Syrah. Alcohol 15.9%."

Producer notes: "[$38 list] The fruit for this wine is from the tiny Stonewall Block of Sonoma’s Parmelee-Hill Vineyard; a site which is contiguous with the famed Durell Vineyard and shares the same vineyard management. The 1.5 acre Stonewall Block is named for the vineyard’s beautiful stone walls, constructed by Chinese laborers in the mid 1800’s. Situated at the base of Sonoma Mountain, the Stonewall Block’s cool climate and rocky, well-drained soils produce moderate yields of intensely rich and vibrant Zinfandel. Tasting Notes: Again our Parmelee-Hill 'Stonewall' Block Zinfandel has an opulent nose of allspice, light cedar, ripe plum and cherry - in this wine however I get even more bright forward fruit than in any of the previous vintages. Only 280 cases produced."

2008 vintage rated 95 points and '100 Best Wines of 2011' by Wine & Spirits: "There's something about the way zin ripens in the east-facing hills north of Calistoga that appeals to me in my gut as much as in my brain. It has the freshness of blackberries picked on a hike in Point Reyes. That wild berry flavor tinges toward brighter fruit, layering vibrant strawberry, tart raspberry and cracked black pepper into a savory Napa Valley red. Yum may not be a technical term, but I wrote it twice in a 20 wine tasting, once for this wine and again for Storybook's Antaeus. Balanced, sophisticated and elegant, this gains with air and would be delicious with simple roast leg of lamb."
Producer notes: "This is our primary estate wine from 100% Napa Valley organically grown estate grapes. Here you will find all the richness and fruit for which Zinfandel is famous, plus the depth and structure associated with Napa hillside vineyards, and the balance for which Storybook wines are known. Crafted to be enjoyed on release, the wine's notable depth and balance will continue its appeal well into the future."
